Bike Paths into Work

45 minutes
easy pace
5 am, cold & dark - the moon that helped me last night was far beneath the horizon - ran down the Bear Creek bike path to Boulder Creek, then up the Boulder Creek bike path to downtown, then 13th to Pearl - it was a lot of concrete, but I wanted to keep it flat since I had just run 12 hours earlier - the whole way I only saw one woman walking her dog (he had a glow-in-the-dark collar!) and one runner - the partially frozen cascades of Boulder Creek were neat to see - felt a little tired, but the crisp morning air felt great - everything was so quiet at that early hour.
